''1) What happens to my character, skills and stuff?
If Project Legion becomes something more than a prototype, we will not leave our DUST 514 players behind. You would be able to bring your character name applicable skills/inventory, and other elements of progression with you.
''
This to me sounds like it doesn't include all accumulated SP. But rather sounds like they will butcher the current skill system and take only the skills they want to Legion.
I don't want skills, I want my skill points! Which is what I worked hard for and spent money on.
Skill points is more likely that just bringing over skills that exist in both. However, exactly how they would translate from DUST 514 to Legion is yet to be seen. Main thing we're waiting on for that is for the new progression system to be completed: it's a bit hard to work out how we could move things from one system to the other when the new one isn't finished yet. The best way to look at it overall though is we want to carry over the investment you guys have made in DUST 514 into Legion. When you think about it in that context, even if things don't translate exactly you can see what we want to do.
It should be easy to just give us back our lifetime SP and let us apply the newly-unallocated SP to skills available in Legion. After all, a lot of us invested in boosters to get those SP which involved cash.
As for the transfer of our characters, it should be easy for those of us who have Eve accounts to be able to get our Dust characters into Legion if both Dust and Eve accounts happen to share the same email address. Of course you will have to talk to Sony to see how both companies can make this work since Sony has a strict policy regarding personal information. It should be ok for Sony since all you're asking is for Sony to allow in-game character stats (nothing to do with personally identifiable information like credit card numbers or home addresses) to be ported over to Legion. Just ask us to open a petition to request the transfer when the time comes so we can give you our email address.

I guess it will depend on how Dust's BPOs will compare to the suits in Legion. If the fitting design is radically different in Legion than that of Dust, then it's likely your BPOs are useless in Legion. If they are mostly similar to each other, you might be able to keep them.

It's a convenient way of destroying all the BPOs we bought with real money too.
Is the transfer of progression going to be proportionate?
Or are you just going to give all the Dust refugees a blanket bonus when they join Legion?
i would think BPOs will be pretty much safe especially the suits as they are just cosmetic in legion as the suits are free anyway. and with salvage who knows how the other bpos might get used. so we may have options there too. its way to early to be stirring up the bpo crowd. i talked to logibro about this on the pub crawl this early on it appears to just be a cosmetic issue.
Oh I see.

You better give us veteran players a massive SP boost and some pretty unique items that will actually help us. A cape with the number "1" on it, and "SUCKER" tattooed across the forehead of ever one of your clones, so everyone will know that you're a Dust vet. Probably. Before this announcement, I was considering getting an EVE account. But, probably not, anymore. I'm going to get a PS4 and Destiny and not even bother with Valkyrie or Dust when they bring the dead game to the PS4. I'm not even going to bother getting EVE or Legion when I get a new PC. Instead, I'll just play Star Citizen. It looks a lot better than EVE and it looks like they know what they are doing better than CCP.
Again, Star Citizen and Eve are not to be compared. Even the developer of SC confirmed that SC is not competing with Eve at all.

But we haven't come up with the solution yet as we need to assemble a few more pieces on the puzzle before we can start looking at that part of the picture. I think that if we cant carry bpos over, maybe have them as skins we can pick from. Like iws said, us vets will be whispering 514 while the new mercs shout legion.
I would be very much ok to have my BPOs be converted to a cosmetic item in this case.
